Pros

Stable job since it is an established medical device company

Cons

Working in IT in a NON-IT organization does not apy you well. You cannot make decisions since some other business unit is funding your project and they do not treat IT with respect

Pros

Abbott has a great benefits package and still offers a pension which in today's world is rare. They offer a great work life balance for the most part. They have a great system whereby every 2 or 3 years you move to a different job which allows you to work there for a lot of years without every growing bored of your job.

Cons

Because of the large number of employees at Abbott it can be difficult to move up quickly. It's a little bit more difficult to change processes and introduce innovation because of Abbott's size.

Work life balance and benefits. There are many different types of careers and one can move through several divisions in the company.

Cons

Largness of company - entrenched management. Way too much focus on finances and financial reporting. Difficult to get headcount to get the job done sometimes.
